Rounding The Horn - A. L. Lloyd[00:00:00]
The gallant frigate[00:00:00]
Amphitrite she lay in Plymouth Sound[00:00:02]
Blue Peter at the foremast head for[00:00:08]
She was outward bound[00:00:12]
We were waiting there for orders[00:00:15]
To send us far from home[00:00:19]
Our orders came for Rio[00:00:23]
And thence around Cape Horn[00:00:27]
While beating off Magellan[00:00:31]
Strait it blew exceeding hard[00:00:34]
Whilst shortening sail two gallant tars[00:00:38]
Fell from the topsail yard[00:00:42]
By angry seas the ropes we threw from[00:00:46]
Their poor hands were torn[00:00:50]
We were forced to leave them to[00:00:53]
The sharks that prowl around Cape Horn[00:00:56]
When we got round the Horn[00:01:01]
My boys we had some glorious days[00:01:04]
And very soon our killick[00:01:09]
Dropped in Valparaiso Bay[00:01:12]
The pretty girls came downing from us[00:01:16]
I solemnly declare[00:01:20]
They are far before the Plynouth girls[00:01:23]
With their long and curly hair[00:01:27]
There were to Valparaiso plynouth[00:01:31]
I'm farewell for a while[00:01:34]
Likewise to aII the Spanish girls[00:01:38]
All on the coast of Chile[00:01:42]
And if ever l live to be paid off[00:01:45]
L'll sit and sing this song[00:01:49]
God bless those pretty Spanish girls[00:01:53]
We left around Cape Horn[00:01:57]
